This review is from: Psychic Academy, Vol. 3 (Paperback)

As Ai tries his best to do good in school, the mysterious girl from Volume 2, FaFa (who happens to share a body with her brother, Ren) kidnaps Ai to have some fun on the town. While his friends desperately search for him, they learn the truth about FaFa. She has no powers of her own, instead serving as a conduit for others psychic powers, almost like Rogue from the X-men, she absorbs psychic energy from others, which also allows her to control the minds of others. The problem is that she has no control over her powers and will very likely hurt innocent people! With her on the streets, it also gives impetus to a growing group of normal humans who see psychics as a danger. Calling themselves "aura hunters", they seek to eliminate that threat! Add to this Ai's continuing conflict over who he likes better, Sahra or Mew!

What a good series not meant to be taken seriously! It's more like the X-Men without all the convoluted baggage and history. The characters are great and the romance intriguing. With a bit of fan service thrown in too. Where else can you see a talking pink rabbit with a Bronx accent, I ask you? Good book.
